Low voter turnout

My wife voted at a little after 5:00 this afternoon.  According to the vote eating machine, she was voter 700-something.  I was voter 500-something at about 1:30.  I have no idea how this compares to past elections, but it seems low and there was no "after-work" line when my wife was there at 5:00.  This is in predominantly Republican West Bloomington.
